This community faces serious challenges in accessing health information, particularly related to stunting prevention efforts. This article aims to identify inclusive and effective health communication strategies for people with disabilities in the local context. Disabled groups remain vulnerable due to limited communication access. Through an equity-based communication approach and a disability-inclusive development framework, health communication needs to be developed using visual media, local sign language, and community-based participatory strategies. The analysis also shows that legally based interventions, such as Presidential Regulation No. 72 of 2021 and Law No. 8 of 2016, are important stepping stones, although their implementation remains limited. This study emphasizes the importance of transforming health communication, not only to inform but also to transformative efforts in reaching marginalized groups like the Kolok community to reduce stunting rates equitably and inclusively.</em></p> Ani Purwati, Suraya Mansur, Gita Ruslita Copyright (c) 2025 Ani Purwati, Suraya Mansur, Gita Ruslita https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://ijcsnet.id/index.php/go/article/view/836 Sun, 20 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Socialization Of Land Dispute Resolution Based On Agreements Between Parties In Serdang Bedagai Regency https://ijcsnet.id/index.php/go/article/view/850 <p><em>Land disputes are a complex problem that frequently occurs in Indonesia, including in Serdang Bedagai Regency. Land, as a strategic resource, is often the object of disputes due to unclear ownership, inheritance that is not properly resolved, land purchases that do not comply with legal procedures, and conflicts between communities and the government or companies in land acquisition. The problem faced by the people of Serdang Bedagai Regency is the lack of understanding of the mechanism for resolving land disputes through inter-party agreements as a more effective and efficient alternative to out-of-court settlement. Many land dispute cases drag on and end in social conflict due to the community's lack of understanding of the procedures and benefits of dispute resolution through agreements. To address this problem, socialization activities were conducted through counseling for the people of Pematang Kuala Village using presentations, group discussions, and interactive question and answer methods. The material presented included types of land disputes, settlement mechanisms through inter-party agreements, and their implementation and challenges. This activity was attended by residents experiencing land disputes, traditional leaders, village officials, and related stakeholders. This program is expected to increase public understanding about peaceful land dispute resolution, reduce the level of land conflict, and increase social harmony in Serdang Bedagai Regency.</em></p> Yulkarnaini Siregar, Yusuf Hanafi Pasaribu, Zetria Erma, Ismayani Ismayani, Taufika Hidayati, Jenda Ingan Mahuli, Widya Annisa Copyright (c) 2025 Ignatius Soni Kurniawan, Yusuf Hanafi Pasaribu, Zetria Erma, Ismayani Ismayani, Taufika Hidayati, Jenda Ingan Mahuli, Widya Annisa https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://ijcsnet.id/index.php/go/article/view/850 Mon, 21 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Legal Counseling On The Mediation Process In Land Dispute Resolution In Serdang Bedagai Regency https://ijcsnet.id/index.php/go/article/view/781 <p><em>Land disputes are a complex issue that frequently occurs in Serdang Bedagai Regency, rooted in unclear ownership status, overlapping certificates, and improper transfer of rights. These issues not only cause material losses but also trigger social tensions in the community. The problem faced by the community is a lack of understanding of the mediation process as a more effective and efficient alternative dispute resolution compared to litigation. People tend to choose the court route, which is time-consuming, expensive, and can worsen relations between parties. To address these problems, legal counseling activities were conducted in Pematang Kuala Village through a collaboration between the community service team of the Indonesian Community Development University (UPMI), Ismayani and Partners Legal Consultants, and media partner sinarsergai.com. The implementation methods included interactive lectures, group discussions, and presentations of real-life case studies. The material covered the legal basis for mediation based on Law No. 30 of 1999 and Perma No. 1 of 2016, the stages of the mediation process, the role of mediators, and the advantages of mediation over litigation. The results of the activities showed an increase in community understanding of mediation and the establishment of a sustainable referral system. This program is expected to reduce land conflicts through win-win solutions, accelerate the dispute resolution process, and improve social harmony in Serdang Bedagai Regency.</em></p> Winta Hayati, Oktavianto Setyo Nugroho, Khomaini Khomaini, Ramadhany Nasution, Syaipul Puad Tarigan, Saimah Rambe, Andalan Christian Saputra Hia Copyright (c) 2025 Winta Hayati, Oktavianto Setyo Nugroho, Khomaini Khomaini, Ramadhany Nasution, Syaipul Puad Tarigan, Saimah Rambe, Andalan Christian Saputra Hia https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://ijcsnet.id/index.php/go/article/view/781 Sun, 20 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Developing a Business Model for Beginner Entrepreneurs for “Simalungun Maju” https://ijcsnet.id/index.php/go/article/view/833 <p style="margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify; background: white;"><span lang="EN-ID" style="font-size: 10.0pt; color: black;">In the era of globalization and rapidly changing technology, the role of entrepreneurship is increasingly important to create innovation, create jobs, develop infrastructure, and improve people's welfare. In the Indonesian economy, entrepreneurship can be one of the answers to encourage economic growth. This is because the economy of the Republic of Indonesia is now in the shadow of weakening purchasing power, which is influenced by rising interest rates and high inflation. For this reason, by continuing to increase entrepreneurship through the right policies and a conducive business environment, it is hoped that employment will be more wide-open, increase people's income and ultimately contribute to public consumption, thereby promoting sustainable and inclusive economic growth in Indonesia. This is the basis for community service activities in the form of business model development training for beginner entrepreneurs to be carried out. Located in three different sub-districts in Simalungun Regency, namely Bandar, Bosar Maligas and Bandar Masilam Districts, with the target of getting participants who will later be included in the advanced fostered members.</span></p> Robert Tua Siregar, Lora Ekana Nainggolan, Nana Triapnita Nainggolan, Djuli Sjafei Purba, Elfina O.P.
